Abstract: In Burkina Faso, a spatio-time-series approach shows that the growth rate of the incidence of relative regional urban poverty is higher 14 % than that of the rate of urbanization. The increasing difficulty of the labour market access and the weakening of the mobilization of the social capital, could explain the absolute and relative increase of monetary deprivations in the cities. Besides, one observes, correlatively with the urbanization, at the same time a progression of the level of the child survival, and a rise in the inequality of the infant and child mortality. These tendencies could mean that sectoral reallocation of poverty constitutes new challenges of development.
